Member Testimonials
I like that there is a pool, and how childcare is an option. My favorite part is the top floor track that surrounds the basketball court.
The building is a large amount of concrete that is comparable to the Truman Sports Complex.
Front desk staff is friendly and personable.
There are plenty of treadmills and ellipticals and there is usually a squat rack or two open whenever I am there. I rarely have to wait when I am using machine weights.
The hot sauna has been amazing the last few months. Keep up the great work!
I like that the front desk staff are always on duty and attentive to Y members checking in. An available free and secure parking lot is a big plus for downtown KCMO. The facilities are always clean and fresh smelling. There's a large variety of equipment for use and plenty, so there's rarely a wait for which I want to use. The pool area is nice too with the hot tub and saunas available.
Always been clean and has friendly workers
The facility is beautiful and full of options for a great workout. It's family friendly and so reasonable.
Kirk Family is the best gym membership I have had and the best YMCA I have been to by faaarrr! I am so thankful for the community here and all of the amenities. I am a mom of 2 under 2 and it's the perfect place to bring my kids, get a workout in, get to the sauna and then take the kids swimming. Not to mention the group classes included with the membership. I used to dream of a membership at Life Time fitness but I would never pay the amount they ask for a family. This YMCA has all of the amenities life time offers and its new! I could go on and on about how much I love this gym.
the only downside if the 4 hour window from 1-4 that the kids zone and the pool area is closed. If you don't have kids or come to gym around that time, no need to worry!
You get your moneys worth here, you won't regret it!
The classes selection and instructors are great
Friendly staff, it’s always clean, and I love the aquatics area. Free parking is a bonus.
I like the way the lap pool area is open the same hours as the family pool. I usually can find a lane that’s open to swim in. The hot tub is big and the dry sauna works well.
This YMCA is adjacent to the old lyric theater, which is beautifully remodeled. What a landmark!
lockers were jammed and the front desk staff was very helpful. Aquatics area very nice with the variety of steam rooms.
It’s clean and friendly atmosphere. It’s near me. I love the pool and spa area. I also love the spin bikes and indoor track.
Clean and quiet
I love the new deadlift /squat platforms. Also the staff at kids zone are always fantastic with my kids.
Friendly employees, clean environment, and every amenity someone would want at the gym
Please buy a mic for the trainers doing classes. Keep it at the desk so it doesn’t get taken, but is crazy that they have to have their own or just shout at us.
Also I get with the remodel you don’t want anyone stretching or doing abs, but we all still want to so can we please get some more mats. The few that are left are used all the time.
Good sauna, steam, whirlpool/hot tub and pool amenities.
I love that it’s open at 5 AM that allows me to actually do a workout before starting work. Also, the weekday crew is amazing.
The classes, the equipment, and the urban environment.
The staff is amazing. It's kept very clean. Equipment is repaired quickly. Lots of space and windows. I doesn't feel crowded and claustrophobic.
The customer service is great. Cleanliness is great.
The staff is friendly, knowledgeable and available when needed. The facility is kept clean and well lit to provide a welcoming atmosphere to workout and meet others so inclined.
Keep up the good work! 🤗
